For any problem like this, the first stop is Google.  If you use the search 
term 'linux 6200 A-LE', the first entry takes you to a list of cards known to 
work with linux.  Your card is there, and said to work with the nv driver.

That means that you don't have a driver problem, and your problem is probably 
relevant only to the install.  Try a text install, as Antonio suggests.  You 
will be able to configure your graphics card and monitor after the install.
